Hurt
Why must you be so cruel to me
Hurt me with your words?
I haven't yet healed from previous wounds
But here you're opening more
Stabbing deep into my heart
Causing more pain than I thought possible
I think about it every night
Crying myself to sleep
Why must you leave me
When you told me you'd stay?
Why must you lie to me
When you told me it was the truth?
Why must you continue hurting me
When you told me you wouldn't?
I tried so hard to stay with you
And now that I've succeeded
You tell me you're going there
Instead of here
Instead of me
You go with her
I've become the shadow of what I used to be
Lost my voice, my thoughts, my mind,
To the sorrow you've trapped me in
Lost and wandering
Wondering where you'd gone
When did you change
From my ally to my enemy?
From my doctor to my killer?
From my antidote to my poison?
But why is it
That no matter how much suffering you send me
In the end I still need you?
No matter how much happiness you tear from me
In the end I still want you?
No matter how much poison you put in my ears
In the end I still love you?
Why must my heart forgive you
When my mind tells me you're not worth these tears?
Why can't I push this all away
And pretend it never happened?
Why can't I find my optimistic side
Buried under all this pessimism?
When will I become normal again?
When will I heal?
When will I dare to love another?
When the only other is you?
